Budget below this project's other Vermont markets

Bennington's housing runs substantially below Colchester, Williston-vt, and Milton-vt -- a real, genuine affordability advantage.

Budget for a notably high property tax rate

Bennington's own cited effective rate (~3.05%) runs well above Vermont's statewide figure -- confirm the current, specific rate directly with the Town of Bennington's Assessor's office.

A real, favorable flood-risk contrast

Unlike this project's Chittenden County Vermont markets, Bennington was largely spared the July 2023 Vermont flooding event -- a real, disclosed advantage for buyers weighing flood risk.
